end-times

I have become more deeply aware of the enormous problems that face our world today, and the dangerous trends which seem to beleading our world to the brink of Armageddon.

The book of Revelation may be difficult and demanding to read, yet it is the only biblical book whose author promises a blessing to those who read it.

We are told in Scripture that there will be signs pointing toward the return of the Lord.I believe that we see those signs in the world today. I believe that the coming of the Lord is near.

Revelation is a pastor__ letter to his floundering flock, an urgent telegram bearing a brilliant battle plan for a people at war.

What a moment to take the newspaper in one hand and the Bible in the other and watch the unfolding of the great drama of the ages. This is an exciting and thrilling time to be alive. I would not want to live in any other period.

[Jesus Christ] is the Lord of history. Nothing is taking God by surprise. Events are moving rapidly toward some sort of climax . . .when His Son, Jesus Christ, returns to be rightful Ruler of the world.

We see the storm clouds gathering and events taking place that herald the second coming of Jesus Christ.

A new world is coming . . . The paradise that man lost will be regained . . . One day we will live in a brand-new world.

When the __vil day_ comes, we do not have to be dependent upon the circumstances around us, but rather on the resources of God!

In the end there will be people who did the work of the Lord. They were busy in the church. They had done many wonderful works. But Jesus Himself says, __ never knew you_ [Matthew 7:23 NKJV].

The world is heading for another major crisis that is being called, even by the secular world, __rmageddon.

I have read the last page of the Bible. It isall going to turn out all right.

Bible teaching about the Second Coming of Christ was thought of as __oomsday_ preaching. But not anymore. It is the only ray of hope that shines as an ever brightening beam in a darkening world.

The Bible tells us that the state of the world will grow darker as we near the end of the age.

I believe that this world, as we know it, will come to an end . . . This is not fanciful imagination but the clear and repeated testimony of the Bible.

We are like a people under [a] sentence of death, waiting for the date to be set. We sense that something is about to happen.We know that things cannot go on as they are. History has reached an impasse. We are now on a collision course. Something is about to give.

The study [of Revelation] instructs us not only about the storms to come, but how to endure and come through them with great victory.

The second coming of Christ will be so revolutionary that it will change every aspect of life on this planet. Christ will reign in righteousness. Disease will be arrested. Death will be modified. War will be abolished. Nature will be changed. Man will live as it was originally intended he should live.
